Together in Performance
March 7: Winter Concert
CROSSCURRENTS brings together distinct musical energies—brilliance, wit, lyric intimacy, and expansive warmth—each work defined by its own character and expressive force.
The program features:
Franz von Suppé – Light Cavalry Overture: Bright, incisive, and rhythmically driven, the overture surges with kinetic energy and crisp orchestral precision.
Tim Swanger – A Cat’s Life: Whimsical yet commanding, this woodwind septet captures playful authority and animated personality through agile exchanges and sharply defined textures.
Max Bruch – Double Concerto for Viola and Violin in E Minor: Lyrical and deeply expressive, the concerto unfolds with warmth and Romantic richness, its solo lines intertwined in resonant dialogue.
Antonín Dvořák – Symphony No. 8: Buoyant and radiant, the symphony balances pastoral serenity with bold, open-hearted exuberance.
CROSSCURRENTS presents music alive with motion, character, and expressive depth.
